in the U.S. House Intelligence Committee in January by new Republican House Speaker Kevin McCarthy in what some Democrats said was an act of retribution. Now a social media post falsely stated that he faces further punishment.Facebook video shared April 19
."Brave Jim Jordan shuts down Schiff!" The video contained several clips, one that included Schiff and others with Rep. Jim Jordan, R-Ohio. The post was flagged as part of Meta’s efforts to combat false news and misinformation on its News Feed. The caption misstates what happened in the video. It began with a clip of a House Intelligence Committee hearing from March 28, 2019 and showed former Rep. Mike Conaway, R-Texas, calling for Schiff, then the committee’s chair,over the House’s investigation of Russia and the 2016 election. Conaway did not mention impeachment.
The video then showed two separate clips of Jordan criticizing Democrats on the House floor. But Jordan did not mention Schiff by name, let alone speak of impeaching him., a precedent set after the House did impeach a U.S. senator in 1797.
